THE SILICATE

ROCK POWDER

ROTOBASE® is the innovative additive for all cement and lime building materials. ROTOBASE® is a silicate rock powder, that is produced through special screening technologies and a treatment processes developed by ROTEC®. ROTOBASE® reacts with the calcium hydroxide liberated during the hydration of the cement and forms cement like C-S-H – phases (calcium silicate hydrates). ROTOBASE® improves the properties of all mineral building materials such as plasters, mortars, concretes, tile adhesives and other construction chemical products.
